Rails is not currently installed on this system. To get the latest version, simply type:
$ sudo gem install rails
You can then rerun your "rails" command.
Try to install Xcode from Mac App Store or GCC compiler https://github.com/kennethreitz/osx-gcc-installer.
Usually Xcode solves all those problems. The GCC is not 100% compliant with all gems.

I'm not able to install json gem on my M1 MacBook. This is the command I'm running.
sudo gem install json -v '2.6.2'
This is the error I'm getting. I'm guessing it because it's picking up Xcode 14.1 Beta 3, but I'm not sure how to have it use a different version of Xcode or if that's the problem.

The issue here is:
Assuming you're trying to install a modern 2.x version of JSON, this error is because it can't see the ruby development tools.
This is because MacOS doesn't include ruby development tools for its base-level version of ruby. That version of ruby is used for some very core-level things on Mac and they lock it down pretty intensely.
The solution is to use rbenv to install a new, user-controlled copy of ruby. This answer has a good step-by-step of how to do that, but the TLDR; is get brew, run brew install rbenv ruby-build, and then run rbenv install 2.6.10 && rbenv global 2.6.10 && rbenv rehash. Then restart your terminal.
Now gem install commands should target the copy of ruby you just installed. (You can validate this by running ruby --version and making sure it lists the version you installed in step 3.) This should fix your issue installing json, whether via gem install or bundle install.

This issue was already reported here, https://github.com/rubygems/bundler/issues/4462.
Can you try bundle update && bundle install.
bundle update will install all of your dependencies, but if you dont want to update all dependencies, try bundle update json only.
When I run $ jekyllor $ jekyll serve it raises the following error:
-bash: /usr/local/bin/jekyll: /System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/2.0/usr/bin/ruby: bad interpreter: No such file or directory
I checked /System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/ and Version 2.0 does not exist. It turns out that on the same day I updated on HighSierra, Version 2.3 was installed.
I think Jekyll still looks for Version 2.0. So how can I tell Jekyll to use Ruby 2.3?
Edit:
When I uninstall and then install jekyll, it fails:
$ gem install jekyll

Solution:
I googled can't find header files for ruby and it turned out that "Command Line Tools for Xcode" must be installed which you can download here: https://developer.apple.com/download/more/
However, I have macOS 10.13 and there is no command line tools for Xcode 8.x (which was the latest version I could install). That's why I searched for Xcode in the Mac App Store and installed Xcode 9. Once, it was installed, a window popped up that said "git requires command line tools. Do you want to install it?". I clicked install and still failed to run $gem install jekyll.
Then I tried $ brew doctor. There were some warnings which I fixed one by one and finally I'm able to run $ gem install jekyll.
I had the same issue. I just uninstalled jekyll
gem uninstall jekyll
and then installed it again.
gem install jekyll
Then it worked again.
I am trying to install gem json and getting error for json.

Its a late response, but may it helps someone else. to install json '1.8.3' it requires packages 'libgmp3-dev'.
Use following steps:
sudo apt-get install libgmp3-dev
gem install json -v '1.8.3'
For anyone who has this issue on Sierra, I solved the problem through this thread: https://teamtreehouse.com/community/installing-ruby-on-mac-got-error
Coles notes version is that after updating to most recent version of XCode, I had to accept the terms for the XCode command line tools. See them/agree to them by running:
gcc --version
After I did that, everything installed as expected.
To help you here are some steps to follow in order to install your gem locally:
Download json-1.8.3.
Place the downloaded gem into a folder called gems
Open the Ruby cmd console (click on start button, select Ruby then select "Start command prompt with Ruby")
cd to the gems folder. If the path to the folder is C:\Desktop\gems, write the command: cd C:\Desktop\gems then click "Enter".
To install the gem run the following command:
gem install --local json-1.8.3.gem
I tried it and it worked for me, hopefully it will work for you.
Result:
Second way:
Include the whole path of the gem in the command:
gem install --local C:\Users\kedarl\Desktop\T\json-1.8.2.gem
For me here is the result. (This time with the json-1.8.2.gem):
I've solved this by installing Command Line Tools Xcode of the version I have. I hope this helps someone else.
If you installed Rails through RailsInstaller, try this -

I'm using:
Os X: 10.9.2
Xcode: 5.1 Build version 5B130a
Command Line Tools (CLT): 5.1.0.0.1.1393561416
Ruby: ruby 2.0.0p247 (2013-06-27 revision 41674) [universal.x86_64-darwin13]
Ruby Gem: 2.2.2
GCC: 4.2.1 Apple LLVM version 5.1 (clang-503.0.38) (based on LLVM 3.4svn)
I am encountering the exact same problem after updating Xcode to 5.1 and news from Apple aren't good. From Xcode 5.1 Release Notes:
The Apple LLVM compiler in Xcode 5.1 treats unrecognized command-line options as errors. This issue has been seen when building both Python native extensions and Ruby Gems, where some invalid compiler options are currently specified.
Projects using invalid compiler options will need to be changed to remove those options. To help ease that transition, the compiler will temporarily accept an option to downgrade the error to a warning:
-Wno-error=unused-command-line-argument-hard-error-in-future
To workaround this issue, set the ARCHFLAGS environment variable to downgrade the error to a warning.
ARCHFLAGS=-Wno-error=unused-command-line-argument-hard-error-in-future gem install GemName
It seems that all gems violating the compiler options must be updated to use valid options. It is explicitly stated that: This option [downgrading error to warning] will not be supported in the future.
The clang note we are seeing (this will be a hard error (cannot be downgraded to a warning) in the future) corresponds to the change announced in the release notes.
To answer your question specifically, use the following to install the json gem:
ARCHFLAGS=-Wno-error=unused-command-line-argument-hard-error-in-future gem install json
Note, however, that this is only a temporary fix.
One-liner to fix that
curl https://gist.githubusercontent.com/Paulche/9713531/raw/1e57fbb440d36ca5607d1739cc6151f373b234b6/gistfile1.txt | sudo patch /System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/2.0/usr/lib/ruby/2.0.0/universal-darwin13/rbconfig.rb
To address the issue you can install the most recent version of ruby as described by #Sash. You can use the following commands to do so. In case you already have installed rvm, you don't need to reinstall it.
#Install rvm
\curl -sSL https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable
#Install ruby version 2.0.0-p451
rvm install ruby-2.0.0-p451
#Print ruby version to verify that it was installed successfully
ruby -v
#Install json gem
sudo gem install json
Issue already addressed by Ruby:
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/9624
now we just need to wait for Apple to update their ruby version (2.0.0p247) to the one after the latest one (2.0.0p451) which hasn't come out yet ...
(or brew/macport it)
Update (2014-05-15): Mavericks 10.9.3 updates ruby to
ruby 2.0.0p451 (2014-02-24 revision 45167) [universal.x86_64-darwin13]
And this seems to resolves the issue.
#Muncken has already provided an answer to install gem one by one:
ARCHFLAGS=-Wno-error=unused-command-line-argument-hard-error-in-future gem install GemName
Base on Muncken's answer, I've tried that it also works when using bundle install
ARCHFLAGS=-Wno-error=unused-command-line-argument-hard-error-in-future bundle install
In my case, I actually have similar problem, but not on the system ruby, but on rubies installed by rvm from OSX 10.8, and it has issues after upgrading to OSX 10.9.
A simple reinstall works: rvm reinstall ruby-2.1.1
On OSX 10.10, I had several issues when running rails new firstapp such as:
ERROR: Error installing json:
ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.
fatal error: 'ruby/config.h' file not found
I updated rvm with this configuration and all the errors are gone!:
rvm get stable --auto-dotfiles
You can tell from the app name that I just started fiddling with Ruby on Rails, so the above advice may or may not work for you.
Paul Chechetin's one-liner doesn't appear to work anymore (9/21/15). However, this reply to the post mentioned in Pete's reply solved the problem for me:
(a) Install Apple's XCode, then (b) launch it and accept the licensing terms (I had done (a), but not (b).)
sudo gem uninstall compass
sudo gem install compass
None of these worked for me.
What finally worked is running the command with a sudo -
gem install byebug -v '9.0.6'
It's been a while and I've got similar error. An alternative to folks using bundler is to add the flag to the build configuration like below example:
bundle config build.<gemname> --with-cflags="-Wno-error=implicit-function-declaration"
followed by
bundle install
Please note that you must replace <gemname> above with the name of the actual gem that is throwing the error while building native extensions.
I hope this becomes helpful to others that face similar issues in the future!

I have XCode installed (installed it this morning from the AppStore).
Any ideas how I can fix this?
The problem was that XCode 4.3 doesn't in command line tools by default (not sure if this is the first version that doesn't do this). Installing them got it working.
Command Line Tools can be installed by going to Preferences > Downloads > Components.
I'm not sure why your build was failing, but starting with Vagrant 1.0 (not released yet, but RCs are out), the preferred installation method will be packages, so you can just download a pkg for Mac and install, even without XCode installed: http://downloads.vagrantup.com/
